Who are Age Check Certification Scheme?
The Age Check Certification Scheme (ACCS) is a UKAS-accredited conformity assessment body, comprised of auditors, certification specialists, and data protection experts. We independently test and certify online and offline systems that check age and identity, such as passport scanners, biometric technology, and age verification software.
Our mission is to protect children from the harm associated with access to age-restricted products, content and services.
